The professions I chose were a field mechanic, a photographer, and a student. The field mechanic travels around to different jobsites to perform their job so they would need a portable computer that can create spreadsheets, access the internet and something slightly ruggedized. Nothing fancy, it doesn’t need to be too powerful or even have that much space on its hard disk.
A photographer might prefer a Mac or MacBook, depending on whether they work out of an office or not, because of the graphics and display. Also, Apple’s operating system seems to strike a chord with the artistic type of person because it is clean and nice to look at. These computers tend to be very easy to work with.
Students will more than likely prefer a laptop computer that they can take to class, and can choose either a pc or a Mac since you can run Microsoft Office on either type of machine. Unless they want a computer for gaming they will not need anything with a lot of processing power, and unless they are studying graphic design or something like that they do not need a huge amount of memory.

Well in this situation there are many pros and cons. The pros to this situation would be one you still have everything on the DVD but you have to put it all back on the computer. This would affect someone who has had the computer for a while because they may have more information on the computer to that of a new computer. Just installing the operating system and formatting the hard drives means any applications they have on the computer are gone and would have to be reinstalled which could take a while or may not be available at the time they need them. If someone has had the computer for a while and just used it for the internet they would not be as bad off as say a student who has all his work on the computer. Someone who uses it for business could be affected very badly also. They would probably have a lot of work on the computer and may lose some of this work if they have to get rid of the operating system and would then have to hope they have it backed up somewhere and then have to put it back on the computer, which could take a long time. It would also be bad for say someone like an author who has saved all of his work on this computer because he may lose some of it and have to spend a lot of time putting it back on the computer....

2. Choosing a Computer based on 3 different professions
After checking the table of computer comparison I can mention that a computer shopper has to purchase a computer depends of their needing and the purpose for they want to use the computer. Such as, an educator will need a computer whit a 4GB RAM amount, at less 500 GB for a Hard Drive Size and a Processor Speed of 1.8 GHz because they most of the time use Power Point and Internet, and they don’t use to store a lot of information on their computers.
Also I can mention that a graphic designer will need a computer with the following features. System Memory (RAM) 16GB, a Hard Drive of 1TB can upgrade to 2TB and a Processor Speed of 2.81GHz. A graphic designer will need a computer will at less this features because they need store a lot of data information. As well be able to make graphics in different kind of dimensions and finally a really good definition of colors. For this reasons a lot graphic designer prefer to buy a Mac Computer because they offer extreme computer power......

Choosing a Computer based on 3 different professions
When a shopper is looking for a computer they just don’t look at the price they look to see if it fits all the needs that it will be used for. They also look to see if the computer if going to be at a fixed location or it has to be portable. So, after looking over the table of computer comparison, I was able to determine what profession the computer would be the best fit for all there need.
A Teacher would need a computer like the DELL Inspiron with its 4GB of RAM, 500 GB Hard Drive, and a processor speed of 3.0GHz. The computer would be used for the internet and creating documents such as word, excel, and power point. They wouldn’t need a massive hard drive on their computer due to the fact that they would store a lot of their course info on it. It would be too easy for a student to break a password and steal an answer sheet for a test.
A Graphic Designer would be using the iMac. With its 8GB of Ram, 1 TB Hard drive, and a processor speed of 3.4GHz. They would need to have a computer that has a large hard drive to store all the designs. With the use of Dreamweaver and Photoshop they will need all the storage that they can get. IMac’s are also known for making extreme designs with outstanding colors. That is why the iMac’s are the working horses of the design field.
A medical professional [doctor or nurse] would make great use of the Sony VAIO. The VIAO has 8GB of RAM, 1TB Hard......

The computers and note book I found were really exactly for the professions I was looking for. The four professions I chose were engineer, teacher, graphic designer and also a lawyer and separated on which one will get the desk top and which one will get the laptops based on their job and the requirement needs. I went to Best buy and asked them to help me find two desktops and also two laptops based on the professions they are needed for. First desk top I got was the Lenovo k45e desk top it has 8GB of ram as well as 2GB of ram for graphics and the 2 GB ram is separate from the 8 which makes it total of 10 GB of ram; it has an Intel I5 processor with the speed of 3.2GHZ and hard disk capacity of 1TB. The second desktop I got was the ACEs M11BB07 desktop which has 8GB of ram and 1TB of hard disk capacity and also an AMD A10 processor with the speed of 3.7GHZ. The laptops I got were The Aces g75 which had 8 GB of ram and 1TB o hard drive capacity and also I7 quad core processor. The last notebook I got was actually a tablet from windows called the surface tablet pro 3 which has 4 GB of ram and also flash memory and you could use an usb port to expand your memory and also processor speed of 1.9GHZ and turbo boost.
For the engineer I chose the Lenovo desk top, because it has an 8 GB of ram and also the 2 separate gigabyte of ram for the graphic part, which lets him separate his graphic work from his other work and in that case the computer won’t slow down......

Just about all professions, these days, require the use of computers. They help record, organize and store anything we need them to. The use of computers has grown rapidly and it is hard to get a job without having at least a basic knowledge of how they work. There are some professions, though, that use computers a lot more than others. Some of these professions would be grueling without the help of computers. I have chosen three professions and four computers. For the computers, I have chosen the Dell Inspiron Desk Top, the Hp Pavilion Slimline desk top, the Toshiba Satellite Laptop and the Hp Envy laptop. I have chosen author, educator and lawyer as my profession. I will pair the appropriate computer with its profession.
An author may seem like they would not need much in the way of computers. Often times they do not even use computers to write, but instead prefer pen and paper. However, the work will have to put into a computer sooner or later. An author probably would not be in need for very much space. Their work will most likely be stored on portable storage devices so that they can transport it agencies. Because of this, I think that a suitable computer for an author would be the Toshiba Satellite laptop. It has memory and hard drive space, just not a lot. It is cheap and would serve its purpose for the author perfectly without having the extra features.
Teachers and instructors have a little more of need for space. Again, however, they don’t need...

I believe a doctor would need a low end PC depending on what they are doing. If it is just for paperwork, emails and Internet they shouldn’t need much. In most doctors offices they should and most likely do have servers. The server would handle all the heavy work and that means the towers would just need the minimum. Now if it were a dentist with an ICat X-Ray machine they would most likely need a higher end PC with a good graphics card.
A Scientist is like a doctor but with much more information. There computers and servers would need to be higher end and most likely they would need bigger monitors. They would also have many more programs doing multiple calculations. The PC would have to be very fast and so would the server.
An Educator doesn’t need much since the school has servers also. Most teachers just pull information from the Internet and the school servers. Depending on the school the PC’s are most likely outdated anyway. Also most schools get there computers in bulk for all teachers....

For the profession of a small business owner I would suggest using the HP Business Desktop Pro 3500, because it has plenty of space on the 1TB hard drive, it would be able to process everything that a small business owner would need which goes with the RAM. The final reason it would be good for a small business owner because of the price, $400 5 years ago would have been know where near the computer this is.
For the Lenovo 59439232 Notebook I think that it would be for a Teacher or educator that is looking for a laptop for purpose of being a teacher at multiple schools because it allows them to do the basic work they need but it’s not too large and bulky. They would need a computer that is versatile that will let store enough information on the 500GB drive and enough processing speed to handle basic internet and email needs.
The last profession that would need a full on gaming and designing computer is a graphic......

A graphic designer needs a fast processor, fast Ram and lots of it. If you choose a large hard drive you can work with big files. A large high quality monitor is beneficial. You have the ability to display the tabs all on one screen without eating into the design. It would have to be a desktop. They don’t make Laptop with large screens 21 inches and bigger.
An educator doesn’t really need any special advanced hardware. I believe any normal computer works for an educator. I guess it is a user preference how fast the individual wants the computer to be, how much storage space he or she would need, and how much money is being spent. Again it depends what the educator prefers mobile portable Laptop or a stationary desktop.
The movie maker computer needs a fast processor lots of RAM to run all the different programs simultaneously a movie maker needs. The movie maker would need a lot of storage to be able to store all the movie files that take up a lot of space....

...primarily for budget purposes. When it comes to computer usage these professionals, use Laptops mainly due to its convenience. Being that Accountants are needed at any time to make decisions, identify errors or submit reporting, they need to be able to access systems and their counterparts around the world. In addition, most Accountants use laptops, with double screen monitors at the office, which makes it easy for to maneuver between systems and documents. It’s a great idea to learn accounting to have a successful business, it tells you where you are spending money, provides details in regards to assets and liabilities, profit margins and forecasts on your potential future profit. In essence, based on the intricate details and sensitive information that Accountants deal with on a daily bases, the laptop portability, processing speeds and accessibility is vital in daily operations.
Secondly, we have Teachers, generally at a lower or grade school level, make use of the desktop, due to them being pretty stationary to carry out most of their duties. Their focus is mostly the delivery of a lesson, which is done face to face, with the use of other devices such as a projector or marker board; thus mobility of the laptop computer isn’t needed. When it comes to the benefit of the desktop for a teacher, it enables them to do more in regards to functions with the easier ability to install upgrades in comparison to laptops. Also desktop computers have the price advantage, being......

Before making a purchase for a computer a person should take into consideration what kind of computer they need and for what. The first thing you should think into before even looking for a laptop would be the budget you are going to set for yourself. Think about how much money you are really willing to spend on a computer. They come in many different options so choose wisely on what you need the computer for whether it would be for school or work or even a basic home computer. The next topic to take into consideration before making a purchase would be what purpose will it serve? Is this computer you are going to buy for school? For just school maybe looking into a basic laptop for using word which could be a cheap way out of it. Maybe this computer is for gaming, which money will come into play for this. A gamming computer typically needs a fast processor, a lot of RAM and a large hard......

In today’s world computers are used, in almost every profession, from doctors and lawyers, to graphic designers to cashiers, computers are everywhere and needed to basic infrastructure within a company. Some of the main professions that computers are highly needed are, doctors, graphic designers, and cyber security professional.
Doctors work in a very stressful environment, with many patients whose illnesses and symptoms are to be recorded for future reference. A doctor with a simple desktop computer like the slim-line with 500 gigabytes of memory and 4 gigs of ram, can do his job as well as this computer, with a large amount of storage, many documents about patients can be placed in a safe location on the computer, and with 4 gigs of ram, the doctor can run multiple programs all at once without any lag, this computer comes stock with a Celeron processor, which is perfect for the desk job environment.
Another profession which a computer is highly needed is Graphic Designs. This job doesn’t call for just any computer though. This job needs a computer with the ability to run high quality graphics, and do many things at once accordingly with the job. The perfect computer that I see fit would be the alienware 4K Ultra HD laptop. This laptop is something I consider the 800 pound gorilla of laptops. With the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M graphics card, this computer can in fact run very high quality graphics, to ensure that......
